As far as the rio goes, there's no timebomb, i've ripped out the juwel filter and i use and external eheim 2224 and lots of live rock. The Juwel powerhead (this as i understand it is the oil slick) has also been removed and replaced with 4 powerheads (dont remember make but they were good one's...

Alkalinity is again, somthing i don't check for. Bad me !!. I've never seen an alkalinity testkit or additive. The only way i know to check alkalinity is through my GH / KH test kit. Obviously higher KH means higher alkalinity and a higher PH (As far as i know). I use that kit on my discus...

I was kind of looking for some advice on HOW to use kalk. Do i need the drip method? Can i just add it direct from a pipette???

Deltec MCE600, don't mess about just get one. Went through 3 skimmers on my way to this one and i'll never ever go back !!!

Final update. I'm now really really happy with my reef, as i said i rearranged all the rockwork and corals (with the help of a friend who seems to be naturally talented at rockscaping) , and it looks awesome now, the nem is fully sprawled out and looking very well indeed. End of panic :D...

I've just aquired a finepix s3000 too !!! Any tips on good piccies / No motion blur?? What settings do you use?

Im going with a mollusk of some sort, i have one too, looks very similar, but saying that, your pic could be better.

Well, i re-arranged my whole reef last night, so the nem is no longer a problem, he's back on his rock :D He's looking good as usuall, worries over !

HAhahaha Maybee so, I rearranged my whole reef yesterday, i'm awaiting the crab revolution. Will be sleeping with my eye's open from now on :D

Wow, would love to have seen that 7 foot squid!

Raising the skimmer cup would change the current? WOW He's fine for now, will check on him when i get home from work, i don't wanna move him, he has the right to move if he wants to, and i've allready relocated the toadstool.
